  • RES 1: 1.3452 61.8% retracement of the Sep 17 - Nov 4 bear leg

  • SUP 2: 1.3284 50-day EMA
  • SUP 3: 1.3180 Low Dec 2 
  • SUP 4: 1.3125 Low Nov 26      

A bullish extension last week in GBPUSD confirmed a resumption of the current uptrend. Sights are on 1.3452 next (pierced), 61.8% of the Sep 17 - Nov 4 bear leg. Clearance of this hurdle would strengthen a bull theme and open 1.3527, the Oct 1 high. Initial firm support is seen at 1.3286, the 20-day EMA. A clear break of this average would highlight a bearish development and signal a possible reversal.

A bull cycle in S&P E-Minis remains intact and the latest pullback - for now - is considered corrective. Initial support to watch is 6830.94, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average would signal scope for a deeper retracement. Note that the key support and reversal trigger lies at 6583.00, the Nov 21 low. For bulls, a resumption of gains would refocus attention on the key resistance and bull trigger at 7014.00, the Oct 30 high.
